Original Item: Only One Available. Although the .8 liter capacity, M31 canteens were the standard issue canteen, field medics and medical personnel were issued a larger, one and a half to two liter capacity canteen that was based on the larger canteens used by their WWI counterparts. These larger medical canteens were of identical design to the standard M31 canteens but came equipped with a different carrying harness and shoulder strap assembly.

Originally the mountain troops/medical canteens were manufactured in aluminum but later as the aluminum was required for other more critically essential items the canteens began to be manufactured in steel. With potable fluids being such an essential item for an individuals well-being the mountain troops/medical canteen must be considered as a very important piece of kit.

This is a near mint unissued example, with only storage wear preventing it from being truly mint. The bakelite cup has a maker mold mark, but no letter code or date, and the cap has the same maker mark. The wonderful black finished leather harness is in excellent condition. The neck of the canteen is marked ESB 40. The makers of canteens often did not use the German 3 letter system, so this maker mark is in fact for Eduard Sommerfeld, Berlin, made in 1940.

All straps, buckles and snaps are complete, with the large hanging hook on the back. There is a bit of oxidation staining on the snaps of the felt cover, otherwise this is an excellent example.
